Stott Tops Phillies MiLB System as Hitter of the Month

The Reading Fightin Phils are excited to announce Bryson Stott as the Phillies Minor League Hitter of the Month. Stott was promoted to Double-A on June 1st, after he spent May at the High-A Jersey Shore Blue Claws. The Phillies #2 prospect was stellar both at the plate and on the field in middle infield positions

The star recorded 21 hits in the month, including four doubles and five home runs for a .288 batting average. Stott walked 22 times and notched a 1.001 OPS which is his on base + slugging percentage. That calculates how well a player hits for both average and power.

At Jersey Shore, he played both second base and shortstop. He made 26 putouts and 50 assists. Defensively Stott only recorded two errors in 191.1 innings.

Bryson Stott, 23, was drafted in the first round back in 2019 as the 14th pick by the Philadelphia Phillies. Prior, the lefty bat was a three-year starter at UNLV.

Stott has been mentored by Bryce Harper as they are both from Las Vegas. Harper touts Stotts ability and can’t wait to see his potential. The Fightins congratulate Stott on all his accomplishments and look forward to seeing his success in Double-A.face
